Common questions

Questions before you buy

Which cordless strimmer comes with a battery and charger?

STIHL FSA 50 is listed as a set with AK 10 battery and AL 101 charger. DEWALT DCMST561P1-GB is also supplied with a 5 Ah battery and charger.

Is a cordless strimmer kit better than tool-only?

A kit is convenient if you do not own compatible batteries. If you already have batteries in the same platform, compare the bare-tool option and verify charger needs.

How long does a cordless strimmer battery last?

Runtime depends on battery capacity, vegetation and cutting load. STIHL lists up to 25 minutes for FSA 50 with AK 10 and up to 30 minutes for FSA 60 R with AK 20.

Can I use one battery across different cordless strimmers?

Only within a manufacturer-compatible battery platform and voltage range. Check the manual and compatibility list before sharing a pack.
